Fantastic guide, driver, and tour! - Mahmoud was our tour guide today at Saqqara, Memphis, and the Grand Egyptian Museum! He was amazing, so knowledgeable and took the time to explain all the questions we had! I’d highly recommend booking the private tour if you want to ask questions, chat with your guide, and learn more than just the surface level of these amazing sites! Our driver was fantastic too! He navigated us safely around the streets of Egypt. The site you see are amazing and it’s a well planned day! Spending the morning outside in the heat you then move indoors for the museum to cool off. It’s hard to explain the awe in seeing the oldest pyramid and seeing the Book of the Dead written in hieroglyphs but it is jaw dropping! And Mahmoud guided us the whole way - learned more in a day than I did the whole semester of Egyptian history I took in college.

The master Egyptologist! - What a truly tremendous experience! We did this on our last day in Cairo and it was amazing. This was all due to our Egyptologist Ibrahim. He was one of a kinda and probably knew more about the Egyptian history then google! His English was great and he was so engaging we asked probably a million questions and had a ton of discussions. We adjusted the tour a little and he was able to accommodate us and we truly appreciate that as it made our last day the most memorable! I would recommend Ibrahim to anyone that visits and ask for him specifically as he is simply the best. We had tours all week and they were great but this one by far the best and that was all in part to our wonderful tour guide! Thank you!

Brilliant Tour - We did a private tour with Aly with private transfers from hurghada, wow. From booking Aly was brilliant, answering any questions I had straight away, not pushing anything but giving me helpful advice along the way. His knowledge is excellent and description of everything is amazing. We have been to Egypt lots of times and been on lots of tours, I can quite honestly say this was one of the best we've been on. The private transfer from hurghada was excellent and so much better than being on a bus. We plan to go back and will definitely book something else with Aly. Highly recommended Definitely 5 stars
